Bitfilm’s virtual art city in Twinity

June 6, 2008

Metaversum’s virtual cum mirror world, Twinity, is hosting the German digital media festival Bitfilm in an underground city called Bitropolis. It houses a cinema to view Bitfilm entries as well as an art gallery and bar. Digital media artists can rent their own cube close to the cinema to use for their screenings or other exploits.

The Bitfilm promo gives a snapshot of the quality of digital media on offer:

The festival runs through to the 12th July. To access Bitropolis you’ll need to register online.

There’s no shortage of virtual world film festivals now but this seems to be one of the more integrated efforts involving a well established festival. If you’re a Twinity beta-tester, we’d love to hear from you on the festival.
